my love

My sweet hubs made us reservations a month ago to one of my favorite restaurants here in Houston-Ruggles. It's a special place to us because we had dinner there on our honeymoon before departing to Maui. Located in the heart of Montrose in a little old house, dim lights, eclectic decor, to die for desserts. We had a lovely time together and actually only talked about Hudson once. It was nice because we did not feel rushed by the staff and ended up spending almost 3 hours there. The restaurant was not all geared up for V-day with cheesy decor and a set menu either, thank goodness.


I know what some people say about Valentine's. That it's commercialized and silly and that your husband should love you and shower you with chocolates year round..blahblahblah. Well, guess what? Mine does. We just used the day as a fun excuse to get dressed up and go out to a nice dinner! And you know what else? I waited 22 years to have a date for Valentine's, a rose, or for a guy to even like me. I waited 22 years for a boyfriend. He was my first and my last. And he is now my husband. I am so thankful for the way the Lord protected me all that time. Jason is amazing. He loves the Lord with all his heart, works so hard for his family, serves me so well, and is gentle, patient,kind and wise. Watching him with our Hudson is precious. So, to my first Valentine. I love you, Jason!
